It is with a heavy heart that we tell you all that our dear staff member Tonibunny, who was with SSo from the start and was a good friend to many here, passed away 26th February.

She was a wonderful friend to many members of the site. She readily shared all her knowledge and experience of scoliosis and was always willing to help and encourage anyone who reached out to her. When she wasn't sharing her experience of scoliosis, she shared her love of books, art, and music. She had a love of learning and life that was infectious.

Surgery Details:

Have had three major procedures. First two were inappropriate and incompetently performed and should not have been done by this surgeon (Manoj Krishna at the Nuffield in Stockton on Tees in the North East of England). I have won a clinical negligence case against him in April 2014! I had a third op with a different surgeon (Mr Dan Fagan -Spine surgeon in Darlington) he tried his best to counteract the damage but unfortunately it did not work due to scar tissue and damage already present from the first ops! Went to see Mr Mike Grevitt for more advice but he said it would take massive further surgeries with possibly no better outcome and I am unable or rather unwilling -due to the high risks- to have any further surgery - but Mr Fagan is permanently monitoring me now and I have SI injections as and when I need them which help a little with the awful pains I have been left with.
